Roach-Busters is a massive, populous, developed country located in the Indian Ocean. Originally inhabited by animistic natives infamous for their wanton brutality and human sacrifices, it remained unpopulated for thousands of years after the natives all but wiped each other out during one of their frequent bouts of ethnic/religious strife. Discovered by European explorers, freed African slaves, and Thai and Philippine natives in 1596, it was soon thereafter settled and colonized. The diversity of its founders is one of RB's proudest and most enduring legacies: today, the nation is a melting pot of hundreds of different nationalities, ethnicities, and religions, all coexisting in total or near-total harmony. While economically one the freest nations in the world - indeed, the government's laissez faire policy borders on anarchic - socially it remains relatively backwards, and politically, it ranks among the most authoritarian on Earth, ranking right up there with Laurasia and Parthia, both dictatorships that RB is proud to count among its allies. RB's human rights record has been aggressively scrutinized and denounced by the international community - earning the ire of both the RB government and its people.
